So, I went to my primary care doctor and he said that I had low iron. Then he recommended that I should go to my gynecologist and get on birth control, and then I wouldn’t have my menstrual cycle for 6 months which would help with low iron. Besides the blood report, I don’t really have any crazy symptoms cause of low iron. And I thought recommending getting on birth control and losing cycles was such a drastic approach cause birth control has so many side effects. Am i overthinking or is this normal?

My parents are so judgmental and they often make lots of comment about things that I don’t agree with. But them saying those comments instills in me that xyz is inherently wrong. How do i just stop caring about that and live my life the way I want?

This may or may not be relevant to this sub. But, I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and graduated 2 years ago. But the only experience I have is 1 year of internship experience in market research. I have been having a hard time finding a job in this field. My parents want me to do a master’s. I don’t think it is a good idea rn but they think that it is better than staying unemployed. What should I do?

Adding context: I wanna work in the field of market research but i don’t think master’s in market research is the best because it’s too specific. I am thinking of going for either Master’s in Business Analytics or Marketing Analytics, both can get me become market research analyst but they also open up other fields. The issue is that a lot of jobs in this field prefer experience over master’s.

I see people around me get new jobs, travel to new places, etc. but I am just stuck. Pretty much, all of this year, I have been job searching. I haven’t done anything exciting. I keep thinking that I will do this and I will do that after I get a job.

But, I barely get any interviews for roles in other cities. I don’t know how to convince the recruiters that I really am willing to move. I have ‘willing to relocate’ on my resume.

I have been unemployed for a while now and it has been the worst time of my life. It’s not due to the fact that I am not getting interviews, but more so because I have gotten so many interviews and have failed so many times. I don’t wanna go through the long grueling process just to get rejected again. I know I should prepare even more for interviews but all i wanna do is cry all day and soak in my misery. I don’t know how to get the right mindset to push through and get a job.

I interviewed for a role, went through all 3 rounds quite quickly. They wanted to set up the final round as soon as possible, so I thought they are trying to hire quickly. So, I did the interview on Monday and towards the end they said that they are still finishing up first rounds, and that I will hear back in 2 weeks. Now, I feel like I am an idiot, cause I thought I would have an offer end of week. Why rush me through the process just to make me wait? I am overthinking that if I had just performed better, I would have gotten the offer.

I open social media, and see others living the life I want and feel jealous. I open LinkedIn, and see other people be in the roles I want to be in, and feel jealous. No matter how hard I try, I am not able to get a job, and I just feel so stuck. I know I shouldn't be jealous, everyone has their own journey and I don't know the struggle they had to go through to get that job, but I can't help it. I get especially jealous when I see new grads who have a great job in a great company. I graduated over 2 years ago and am still having a hard time getting a job.

I didn’t make any friends in high school because i was so shy and introverted. I didn’t make any friends in college cause I did it online. Now, I am 21, jobless, carless, and friendless. I stay at home all week and apply for jobs. My parents take me out of the house on the weekends cause they feel bad for me. I just wanna start over in a new city but I can’t even seem to get a job, let alone a job in a different city. I am curious if there are people out there like me?

I can’t even properly enjoy the nice moment cause of it.

I have been looking for an entry level job in this field for 8 months and still haven’t been able to secure anything.

This has happened to me 2 times now. I did 4 rounds for one role and 5 rounds for another, and then after final round I got rejected. But then a week later, the job is reposted.

Assuming that there are 2 final candidates, if they didn’t choose me, they chose the other candidate right? But no, apparently they repost the role to restart the process. Make it make sense to me. How broken is the hiring process that even after so many rounds, you are not able to find the right person?

I have a bachelor’s in psychology and have 1 year of post grad internship experience in market research. I am 2+ years post grad and that’s the only experience I have. I have been looking for a full-time job since January.

My parents are pushing me to get a master’s degree. I was thinking between Master’s in market research or MBA, most of yall (market reseach subreddit) said MBA is better. But then I looked online, most people who do MBA already have lots of experience in their field and it wouldn’t be beneficial to me since I don’t have lots of experience. So, I researched further and landed on getting a Master’s in Business Analytics which might be better at this stage in my career.

I really just want a job rn to get experience but my parents said that since I am unemployed, I might as well pursue a master’s to not have a gap. My biggest worry is that I might seem overqualified on paper due to pursuing master’s which would make it even more difficult to find an entry level job.

What are yall’s thoughts? Should I pursue a graduate degree? If so, would MS in Business Analytics be good for Market Research? (I don’t wanna do MS in Market Research since it is a bit too niche).
